CareersEmployers are as diverse as the products they produce and cover a broad range of industrial sectors involving conversion of raw materials into a product such gas and oil prospecting and extraction, oil re�ning, renewable energy generation, pharmaceuticals, �ne and heavy chemical, agrochemicals, electronic and hi-tech materials (semiconductor industry), food, pulp and paper, plastic and metals, �bers and polymers etc. Many chemical development engineers also work for engineering consultancy �rms.
Do you know that many of our everyday products are manufactured using chemical engineering? These products have one thing in common: they have made the dif�cult transition from the research laboratory to drawing board to industrial application and �nally to the commercial market.
This transition has to be facilitated by specialists called “Chemical Engineers”. Chemical engineers have the know-how to develop chemical processes (Process Engineering) and deliver innovative products (Product Engineering) to the market in a quick, ef�cient and economical manner.
Chemical Engineering integrates concepts from physical sciences (Chemistry, Physics), life sciences, mathematics, economics and uses engineering principles to “Deliver In-demand Products to Market” through the conversion of raw materials (chemicals) to useful products. It deals with the design and development of equipments and processes for the manufacturing of chemical products.
AcademicsUndergraduateThe undergraduate B.Tech. in Chemical Engineering is a focused program designed to understand and solve
industry related chemical engineering problems through a balanced understanding of the theory and principles of the subject. With its emphasis on problem-solving skills, quantitative analysis and teamwork the program provides an excellent foundation for future careers in chemical and allied engineering �elds.
PostgraduateThe postgraduate M.Tech. and Ph.D. programs are designed to prepare students for a research and development career in a wide range of specializations such as oil and gas, bio-chemical engineering, food technology, fertilizers, and petrochemicals.Research FocusResearch focus areas include industrial waste-water treatment, solid waste management, membrane separations, modeling and simulation of processes, computational �uid dynamics, fermentation and bioprocess technology.

The M.Tech. program is designed to prepare students from different
disciplines to take nanotechnology as a career. The curriculum is
prepared in such a manner that the students can choose their own
specialization like nanomedicine, nanoelectronics, and nanomaterials.
Students get to understand current frontier developments in
nanotechnology, to recognize and develop innovative ideas using a
range of laboratory methods, speci�cally the fabrication and
characterization of tools used in nanotechnology, surface
modi�cations and molecular level construction. It also provides
training and research opportunities for university graduates.
Research Focus
Nanotechnology has developed into a major research area that often
interacts strongly with other disciplines like materials science, life
sciences and electronics. Research activities at the department
include top notch areas like nanosensors and actuators, molecular
electronics, nanomedicine and drug delivery. About 165 research
papers have been published in various international and national high
impact factor journals in the last few years. The department has
funded projects from various agencies such as DST, DST-FIST,
ISRO-ARFI, and RESPOND, to the tune of `1.27 crores. Research in
nanotechnology at SRM University is expected to play a key role in the
development of nanotechnology R&D in the country.
The department provides comprehensive guidance to career aspects along with many helpful hints on choosing the right career and landing a well paying job that is best suited to one’s skills and interests. There is a huge demand in Europe, Far East Asian countries, USA, Canada and in India. This enables students to pursue their higher studies in India as well as in well established centers abroad.
